2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 promontor (37) - HUNGARY - APR 4, 2013
0.5l bottle from Különleges Sörök Boltja. (I tasted this at the very first Főzdefeszt (back in 2011) and hated it then: it was warm, way too sweet and had some nasty metallic-medicine-like bitterness. But that was long ago in it was time to give it a chance again.) Starts with very little and disappointing head. Aroma is neutral, taste is dominantly sweet, caramel, roasted grains, a bit smoky perhaps. Some spicyness also present. There is some ale-ish character hiding here, reminds me to Newcastle Brown Ale. So, on the one hand, I have to admit this beer is much better than I remembered (or perhaps it has improved since then...) Yet, there is also some nasty medicine-like taste that remains also dominant for long. So, despite all the complexity I still dislike this beer..

This beer has a fantastic taste to it. It is smooth, creamy, mellow, with all the right notes at just the right time. Would highly suggest to anyone who wants to try some good Hungarian beer.
